Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SS2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
